The 44-year-old Newark man wounded in the shooting remains in critical but stable condition, police said.

The grainy surveillance video recorded from a distance across a parking lot shows the gunman arrive and leave the T.G.I. Fridays in a car at 11:11 p.m. He shot the victim multiple times at close range and fled onto South Park Avenue, police said.

The gunman is described as having long dreadlocks and driving a black sedan.

Anyone who may have information about the shooting is asked to contact Det. Juan Velarde at (908) 347-9227.
